Oral Mucosal Disorder
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of oral tissue sloughing through self-report by study subjects and by professional dental examinations.
Detailed description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of oral tissue sloughing through self-report by study subjects and by professional dental examinations. Adverse events will be tracked through study dental examinations and subject diaries with twice daily use of the 3M Oral Rinse used in combination with toothpaste containing one of three levels (no, medium, high) of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). Determine the subjects' acceptance of sloughing and/or other side effects
Interventions
Toothpaste no Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Less than or equal to X ppm Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
More than or equal to X ppm Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Rinse prevents bacterial adherence to teeth

Masking description
Assessors did not know what toothpaste subjects used.
Intervention model description
The study was designed as an imbalanced 2 Period Crossover Study. However, the study was terminated during the washout period and the results reported here reflect only the period 1 results.

| Number of Participants With Oral Mucosal Exfoliation (Oral Sloughing) | End of treatment (3 weeks) | Percentage of participants who experienced oral sloughing as reported either by the subject or determined by the dental evaluator. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The Number of Participants With a Given Range of Average Oral Mucosal Sloughing Index Scores | Mid-Treatment (10 days) | Average score based on the mean of sloughing scores over 12 intra-oral areas. The sloughing score uses a 6 point scale as follows: 0= no sloughing, 1=flecks of desquamation, 2=sheets of desquamation, 3=redness, not due to plaque, 4=erosion of mucosa, 5=ulcerated areas. The twelve intra-oral areas of the mouth are as follows: dorsal and ventral surfaces of the tongue, floor and roof of the mouth, right and left buccal mucosa, gingival tissue.
